you really should make a category of examples named "facebook-related"... I know facebook is not a microsoft product, but so many technologies are or will be used to connect to facebook (and facebook's own documentation is bad, disorganized etc., not to talk about complete absence of microsoft-related technologies) that microsoft and its allies should do whatever is needed to ease the task for people that try to write applications using microsoft technologies against facebook

paul3654, we recently announced a new code sample request service. Please submit the sample topic by following this guidance:http://1code.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Request%20Code%20Sample%20from%20Microsoft%20All-In-One%20Code%20Framework&referringTitle=Documentation

gevalia, I recently announced a new code sample request service. Please submit the sample topic by following this guidance:http://1code.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Request%20Code%20Sample%20from%20Microsoft%20All-In-One%20Code%20Framework&referringTitle=Documentation

This is great. But I would love the following sample> Silverlight 4 OOB application hosted in the service bus utilizing ACS (>>windows ID, Yahoo, Google) to access WCF services also in the BS. I have found bits and pieces but no sample that shows all of this planned out and executed. Sure there are bits and pieces but they never seem to go together smoothly for someone trying to learn. And how about showing then in DevFabric 1st then promoted to the cloud!

I'm using the Express Edition version of Visual Studio. (VS 2008 EE)Question: At the top right corner of this page, you have a box labeled "System Requirements, For Development." Does this mean that in order to develop an app using these samples that I have to have one of the version of VS listed,, or are you saying that if I want to develop a new sample or contribute to an existing one that I need a listed version?

Microsoft COM (Component Object Model) technology in the Microsoft Windows-family of Operating Systems enables software components to communicate. COM is used by developers to create re-usable software components, link components together to build applications, and take advantage of Windows services. COM objects can be created with a variety of programming languages. Object-oriented languages, such as C++, provide programming mechanisms that simplify the implementation of COM objects. The family of COM technologies includes COM+, Distributed COM (DCOM) and ActiveX® Controls.

Feature Request: please add a column called Readme to each of the tables in the Sample Catalog (i.e. Name, Description, Owner, Readme). The new column would contain a link to the Readme file for each Sample.
